WHAT IS THE OLD FLAG MADE OF? 



What is the old flag made of, made of- 



What is the old flag made of ? 
The stars of the sky that shine upon high, 
That's what the flag is made of. 

What is the old flag made of, made of — 

What is the old flag made of? 
The blood that was red in heroes that bled, 

That's what the flag is made of.

What is the old flag made of? 
The skies that are blue which hang over you. 

That's what the flag is made of. 

What is the old flag made of, made of — 

What is the old flag made of ? 
The purpose in man to live by God's plan, 

That's what the flag is made of.

'SALUTE OLD GLORY/ 



The Stars and Stripes are passing by;

There is no flag can wave so high — 

Salute Old Glory! 
Stand with your cap within your hand; 
There is no flag so great and grand; 
Its colors guard our native land — 

Salute Old Glory! 

Our fathers died that it might wave; 
The blood they shed they freely gave; 
Earth never found a flag more brave —

My name is Jim, and his is Jack; 

Now, ladies," won't you smile? 
A khaki suit is what we wear, 

Because it is the style.

For a certain day's appointed 

For ev'ry man to rest. 
Yes, a certain day's appointed 

For ev'ry man to rest. 



Jack left his home and I left mine. 

Now, what else could we do? 
Our country called and we obeyed. 

Because our hearts are true. 
And if we die across the sea,

Now come, ye U. S. countrymen, 
And battle on the sea. 

Come from the ends of all the land- 
Defend your liberty!

Avenge each ocean grave! 

Come like our ancient mariners 
And charge the briny wave! 

Our martyrs call, and ye must hear, 
Like seamen true and brave!

Full in the winds that blow! 

Now follow and belch forth your wrath 
In flames ^f-b^i^^ing woe!

JERRY SULLIVAN— PATRIOT. 

(Venice, Calif.) 

"Old Glory is a dirty old rag." — Public 
Street Speaker. 

"If it's a dirty old rag, I'll make you eat 
it," says Jeri-y Sullivan. 

O'im tippin' me hat to ye, Jerry; 

O'im bowin' me head to the ground. 
Begorre, and faith to ye, Jerry, 

Yer likes is a men^-go-round. 

The imp o' the land o' the brazen, 
The clod without country or flag. 

He says that the blessed old banner 
Is only a dirty old rag. 

O'im thinkin' we heard him together. 
But, JeiTy, ye heard him the first, 

For ye wuz that wild that yer temper 
Wuz boilin' an' ready to burst. 

O'im hearin' ye telling it over,

But honor, belated^ has found yoi 

An' crowned you, on old Venice Square. 

Begorre, we cheered like the blazes, 
O'im proud of yer fight of today; 

Ye held like a vise till he swallowed. 
An' choked like a sinner on hay. 

Ye stood like a captain, me Jerry, 
Like one who is leadin' the band — 

An' said that a man without banner 
Has neither a countiy or land. 

O'im tippin' me hat to ye, Jerry, 
O'im bowin' an' ready to crawl; 

Yer like, an' yer kind, is a credit 
To dance at the President's ball. 

Whin "taps" from old Gabriel is callin', 
Thin,'Jerry, they'll give you a tag; 

An' readin', ye'll find yer immortal 
For bravely defending the flag.

HONORABLY DISCHARGED. 



Boys, I got the dope today 

That I'll soon be on my way, 
And the parting brings a little bit of sor- 
row. 

Yes, I've been a good old scout, 

But it's time to muster out — 
And I'll be a plain civilian on the morrow. 

Here I've made a friend or two — 
Some as staunch and some as true 

As could ever bless the hour you've got to 
borrow. 
But our debts were honor bound — 
Twenty ounces to the pound — 

Now I'll be a plain civilian on the morrow. 

Each of us was like a chum; 
We could always spare a crumb 
For each other, and we'd often feed a spar- 
row.

We would strut along the pike 

Same as when upon a hike. 
Or we'd run to put to shame the swiftest 
arrow. 

Now my race with you is run 

And my soldiering is done. 
For I'll be a plain civilian on the morrow. 

Though it's rather hard to go. 
Still, somehow, well, I don't know, 
There's a mother who is waiting in her sor- 
row. 
So I'll drink a parting toast; 
"Here's to her I love the most! 
May she greet her plain civilian on the mor-

An' help put the linen away!

You're married, so scatter! 
We're lookin' for men who kin fight. 

Go 'long with your wishes, 

An' dry your old dishes.

TO OUR HYPHENATED COUNTRYMEN. 



Sons of Europe, here transplanted! 

Sons of sires of alien birth! 
Ye have sworn allegiance ever 

To the greatest flag on earth! 
Sink your faith a little deeper, 

Sing the name that should be sung 
First among the roll of nations. 

First upon your mortal tongue! 

Drop the creeds of ancient folly; 

Drop the yokes of foreign pride; 
Let the bondman serve his master, 

Bow to lords and kings beside! 
'Tis your birthright to be boastful, 

God ordained you should be free; 
Bow to none beside the sceptre

There is bondage in the hyphen; 

Serfs are they who wear the band; 
Fishermen whose streams have vanished- 

Fishing on a foreign strand! 
Drop the treason-mark forever; 

Bury it where. none may find; 
Those who serve one master better — 

Still must leave the rest behind. 

There's a place accorded honor 
Won by valor through the blast; 

Legions tell in song and story 
It must not be sung the last.

Shout the name, "America," shout it 
Till your souls no longer thirst! 

There are lands, but none so precious 
As the one you mention first. 

First in heart and first in spirit, 

'Tis the patriot's stem decree; 
Drop the hyphen from your ego — 

"Just a plain American be!" 
Show your kinship! Wave the banner! 

Colors red, and white and blue! 
And the land that gives you shelter 

Will be justly proud of you! 



GO FORTH, YE OF A FOREIGN HEART.

Rush to your monarch's call;

And we must bow to Satan's will,

We must! We must! 

We must forget Christ's diadem. 
We must forget that we are men, 

We must! We must! 
And we must rouse the beast within. 
And we must torture, bruise and sin. 
Since this is war, so must we win.

Sinking thus in bloody slime, 
What more constitutes a crime?
